With right field unsettled, the St. Louis Cardinals could look to Oscar Taveras to fill the position in 2015.

St. Louis will consider Randal Grichuk, Stephen Piscotty and Taveras for the job.

Taveras struggled when given everyday playing time and was exposed defensively after lagging with his conditioning work this season.

"I think he can be a star, and I think he showed things all season long that showed that," Mike Matheny said. "You see some things there offensively that absolutely excite you. … I think part of that process is that he's never been pushed and never naturally had that passion for the defensive side of the game. He's never had that passion for the baserunning and some of the minor details, which are things that he's now seen guys in that clubhouse who have been around here for a long time, it's all. It's all or nothing. I think that's part of his maturing."

John Mozeliak and Matheny sat down with Taveras at the end of the season to outline their suggestions for an offseason plan.
